"HOLLYWOOD, CA—After watching Mel Gibson's The Passion Of The Christ Monday, Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ announced that He will demand creative control over the next film based on His life."

Yes, it was funny. But our mousethief missed his opportunity for national exposure yesterday when Paul Harvey read out that lead paragraph on his syndicated news...and then gave the wrong URL (theonion.com instead of theoniondome.com)

"Religion is a neurobiological illness and Orthodoxy is its cure." - Fr. John S. Romanides

I know this won't make me popular, but I have a lot of misgivings about The Onion Dome.

It seems to me it goes a little too far sometimes.

Poking fun is okay, but when does it cross the line and become mockery?

Were you referring to the Onion Dome in general, or the article at the top of the thread, which Ambrose pointed out was from the (often blasphemous) satire, The Onion(off which The Onion Dome is based). If you're referring to The Onion and it's fake religious articles, then I agree with you. It goes over the line 90% of the time. The Onion Dome, I would argue, is the reverse. It can go over the line occasionally, but is fine 90% of the time.
